Long Week

Long week

Sorry I've been out of communication for a few days. I hope I didn't worry anyone. After I used my my 2nd $20 internet card, I'm trying to be a little less liberal with how I use it. The sad news is that I did not go to Athens OR Egypt. I had last minute things come upthat required me to cancel both trips. I was not happy about either of these things. Today I am in Valetta, Malta. I'm hoping to go ashore to get some free internet and see some of the city. Tonight is a repeat of last night's show which went pretty well and the crew show, which is light work for us.

Other than that, things are settling in ok. I've had my eyes opened as to how things work in this department. I'm a little dissapointed in all the behind-the-back talking that goes on in lieu of direct communication. But, my direct boss is really doing a great job which makes things a lot easier. Tomorrow's the last sea day for the cruise and then we start again in Barcelona. With 9 and 12 day cruises, the days of the week are less important than the port of the day, so 12 days start to feel like a week. I can't believe I've been away almost 3 weeks already. I come home a month from Sunday.

I miss everyone a lot. I'm not used to going this long without talking to my Fav or my parents. I did get to watch the Superbowl while docked on the coast of Africa...at 1 am. I only made it to the end of the half time show and then went to bed. I've also faithfully watched every episode of Lost. I'm very excited to go home and rewatch them without A. being in a random European cafe and B. without waiting 1 minute to buffer for every minute and a half of show I watch.

I love reading your comments, so keep them coming.
